Types

The "Types" in MetaChain refer to the different kinds of data structures and variables that are used within the layer. Understanding these types is crucial for developers as they form the building blocks for more complex operations and smart contracts.

Common Types

• DFI Types: These are specific to DeFiChain and are used for various operations inside the ecosystem.

• Primitive Types: These include integers, booleans, and strings that are common in most programming languages.

• Composite Types: These are more complex types like arrays and structs, which can hold multiple values or different types of values.

Importance for Developers

Understanding the types is essential for writing efficient and secure smart contracts. Incorrect type usage can lead to vulnerabilities or unexpected behavior.
